As i told before, our daily dishes are turning quite healthier than wat we used to have earlier, i can definitely say that i cant live without a pack of oats, if i dont have oats in my pantry its was like an handicap for me..i know its sounds so funny but i got completely hooked with this healthy grain..Coming to this soyaflour paratha, whenever i feel like preparing parathas or rotis either i go for oats flour which i prepare at home by grinding quick cooking oats or else my choice goes immediately to soya flour, personally i felt soyaflour turns the paratha dough really soft and once the parathas get cooked, parathas will be very light for having them either for breakfast or for dinner...This time while making my soyaflour parathas, i have added half a cup of finely chopped dill leaves and this dill leaves give a fabulous arome to this soft soya flour parathas and both together works out wonder..As everyone at home enjoyed having this healthy and flavourful paratha especially my little one, am sending this soyaflour and dill paratha to Srivalli's Kid's Delight-Wholesome Breakfast...

In a large bowl, mix the soyaflour, wheat flour, dill leaves, garam masala powder, salt, meanwhile beat the yoghurt with olive oil and add gradually the flours and turn everything as soft dough...let the dough for few minutes aside..

Make out 8-10medium sized balls and dust them with all purpose flour..roll them as circles with rolling pin...heat a nonstick pan, drop gently the rolled parathas, drizzle the oil and cook on both sides until the parathas get well cooked..

I was planning quite a long to make out some bakes mainly with two ingredients, the famous chocolate and the nutritious ragi flour, i tried this both ingredients as cookies yesterday as eggless version but not vegan...This cookies are really fantastic, healthy and kids friendly , best for their evening snacks with simple ingredients..Initially i wanted to prepare as savoury biscuits with ragi and chocolate, but its was completely weird na.. may be will try out next time to see how this two ingredients works out together to see how they will tastes out if they are prepared as savoury cookies..Personally this cookies tastes really prefect with some hot coffee or tea when served as snacks and everyone at home loved it, i prepared this ragi and chocolate cookies as small batch and instead of dropping with spoons, i prepared a swirl like cookies by using the round nozzle and pastry bag, which looks like a snail and my DH named this cookies as snail cookies..

Beat the butter and sugar until they turns creamy, mix together the ragi flour, all purpose flour, dark chocolate powder with baking powder and baking soda...add gradually the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and also add the applesauce until they turns as soft but sticky dough...

Preheat the oven at 350F and line a baking sheet over a baking pan, take the dough in a pastry bag with round nozzle and drop over the lined baking sheet as swirl like cookie..finish the dough completely..arrange the baking tray in the middle rack and bake the cookies for 20-25minutes..

I have some leftover dill leaves in my fridge and i wanted to prepare something easily with laughing cow cheese...I prepared this carrot and dill dip through microwave oven quite easily...As we know that dill leaves are very strong in flavour, instead of adding directly to the dip, i cooked the chopped dill leaves with carrot chunks in microwave oven with a cup of water.

Microwave cooking retains the colour of both cooked carrots and dill leaves and this dip looks fantastic with mild orange colour with green dill leaves..This dip goes awesome with toasted breads or simple dip with veggies or with meats...We enjoyed having this delicious cheesy carrot and dill dip with toasted breads for our dinner.

Soak the moong dal overnight..next morning, grind to a paste..Heat a heavy kadai and heat the1/2cup of ghee, once the ghee gets melted, add the dal paste and stir continously without allowing any lumps to form (here we need some helpers to stir, fortunately my H helped me here)..This part is really tricky as the dal cooks really fast..Keep the heat in low flame and keep on stirring until the dal becomes thick..

Add the rest of the ghee and cook the dal until the ghee starts oozing out, meanwhile mix the sugar with milk in a pan to boil and add slowly this to the cooking dal...Keep the flame in simmer and break the lumps while adding the sugar-milk mix...Cook again until the halwa get off from the kadai..

Add the active dry yeast to the luke warm water with sugar and salt, mix everything well and let them sit in a warm place for 5minutes until the yeast turns foamy..Mix together the bread flour, yellow cornmeal, thymn leaves, sesame seeds and minced garlic cloves..add gradually the foamy yeast, olive oil (add water in needed) and turn everything as soft and stiff dough..grease a bowl and place the dough, let it sit for an hour in a warm place..

After an hour the dough would have doubled their volume, punch down the dough and make out 6-8medium size balls,meanwhile line a baking sheet over a baking tray, roll them well as dinner rolls and place them over the lined baking sheet, let them sit again for half an hour in a warm place closed with a towel...Preheat the oven to 350F for few minutes and arrange the baking tray in the middle rack..Bake for 25-30minutes or until the crust turns brown..

When i was planning for making out some portuguese rice dishes, the first rice dish i got immediately was this portuguese tomato rice, which captured my attention immediately coz this rice was quite easy and quick to make out with simple ingredients which can be served with any spicy kurmas or gravies, we had this rice with spicy mushroom kurma and boiled eggs for our lunch yesterday, a prefect Indo Portuguese lunch menu..I loved the simplicity of this rice and also this rice tastes fantastic without any side dish..when i told that today i prepared portuguese tomato rice to everyone at home,they were bit weird and once i served them, the first expression was completely different, yes we enjoyed having this arroz de tomate..Traditionally this rice is prepared with tomatoes, onions, long grain rice cooked in chicken broth with sausages, but i completely omitted both the chicken broth and sausages and prepared this rice in vegetable broth and diced bellpeppers...Needless to say that this portuguese tomato rice goes directly to AWED-Portuguese guest hosted by me, event started by DK and to Silpa's APS-Rice....
